In his book โThere was a Countryโ, Achebe tells young Africans to take an active role in partisan politics, that we can only write the full story if we are part of the players, but if we choose to be on the sidelines we will only write footnotes.

Serekunda market looking up and ready. This is not just for Senegal, itโs for both countries. What unites us is bigger than the lines that divide us. Tomorrow we feast!

Appreciation to the Nigerian military. The updates we are getting are very promising. A win against ISWAP and Boko Haram is a win for the Subregion and the Sahel.
What is happening in Senegal is a constitutional coup! as Macky Sall postpones the presidential election, aiming to eliminate the opposition! Senegal must resist!
You do not need to be Pulaar or Fulani to appreciate this magnificence. From the highlands of Futa Djallon to Toorodo, to the coast of the Atlantic and all the way to the ruins of Kanem-Borno, I've never been more moved by a voice than I have been by hers. Jarama โค๏ธ
They say that a couple who travel together grows together. Going on vacation, if and when you can, is something you won't regret. The experiences are priceless, and the journey allows you to see the world through each other's eyes.
Truly the best team in Africa! The future of African football is in Dakar, they have a fantastic project and we should all learn and copy the master plan. Fantastic crop of young people with a great footballing future. Allez les Lion congratulations for winning all categories!
By the way, your boy made it on the list of 100 most influential young Africans of the year 2021. Small wins accumulate into big wins, this is more inspiration to work harder.
To my Senegalese friends, if you win against us during Afcon, we will call for a national prayer so Amadou Ba wins your presidential elections. So make your choice!
Post colonial Senegal was way ahead of her peers. Iโm not sure where they went wrong. The creative intellectual work that emerged between the 60s and 90s is unmatched in west Africa.
Honored to be sworn in as your representative today. Your support means the world. Ready to serve for another five years. Thank you for your faith in me, and may the journey ahead be filled with progress and prosperity for us all. So help me God.

The whole of Africa is. Iโve taken it upon myself to vote everyday till the polls close. Today I casted my second vote. Baba deserves this one!
What is happening in Senegal has transcended beyond
@SonkoOfficiel
, this is the Senegalese youth making a stand to defy absolutism. Setting a precedence for any other government to be that they will not be micromanaged. They are demanding better!

If Ecowas condemns military coups, they must and should condemn constitutional coups! What is happening in Senegal is treacherous! And if Ecowas wants to be respected, it must apply its oversight function on the Senegalese government.

Gambians are very very peaceful people. I am very proud of this bother and how he comported himself and told him โI donโt want to fight you broโ. Thatโs what we are known for.
โI am a Nigerian, Do you know how many people I have killed in my life?โ
What impression you are leaving?

Congratulations to the darling scorpions, we lost to the best team in Africa and dominated the whole game but unfortunately, we didnโt create enough chances. Senegal did and took advantage of our defensive errors. In the end, Senegambia won ๐๐ฟ๐๐ฟ๐๐ฟ.
Eid Mubarak from my family to yours! May this Eid bring us many blessings and goodwill. May Allah accept our Ibadah and make us of the people of Jannah.

Winning a continental trophy is nice, but winning is against Senegal will be something else. Benachine over cheb, Wonjo over bissap, afra over dibi, ndeyo over ndeki and Kabba over madt. ๐

Hatib and I grew up together in Fajara when we were both very young, this was the time the energies and emotions were at the top. I cannot tell you how we met or got close, but we just clicked and became very close friends.
We must all stand for what we believe in, or we shall perish. In this journey weโve chosen, we will be lonely, we will be taunted but we must always keep moving. What is at stake is bigger than all of us, itโs our collective future, we must stand to defend and not mortgage.
Proud moment, as we signed a D300million road project with Longjian Road & Bridge Co. The project consists of 15.4km of roads, 5.9km of drains, 11 strategic roads, 2 bridges, and Bakau Townโs entire drain network. The project will start in May and will be completed over 3 years.
If you live around Kotu, Manjai and Kololi, I am happy to inform you that we have begun clearing and kickstarting construction of a recreational facility for the youths of the area. This will include a football pitch, Basketball, and volleyball court plus a sitting area.
Why are Senegalese on here angry that we arenโt angry? ๐๐ boy we survived Yahya jammeh and now have to deal with Barrow, you think loosing a football game is that deep? ๐
A few days ago I had asked if you all will love to watch

My mum went for Hajj with extreme arthritis, she used to sit while she prayed and couldnโt even walk for long distances. Today she goes for her morning walks daily, prayers while standing and her bone pains have stopped. Walahi thereโs barakah in the birthplace of our Nabi.
My journey with Pastef began in 2017 when I got into contact with their team in Karang during our impasse, since then, we have collaborated both in the Gambia and Senegal. Today was a proud moment for all of us, witnessing the completion of this great project.
Walahi our country needed this. We are so divided and polarised at the moment, Allah sent us the darling scorpions to unite us. Tonight I donโt see NPP nor do I see UDP, I see Gambians with smiles on their faces no matter how hard it is economically for all of us.

โฆ.. Iโm not even disappointed, Iโm super proud of what this team has achieved. You get ready, we will be waiting for you at the airport champions.
โYou are what you do, not what you say you'll do.โ โTo be yourself in a world that is constantly trying to make you something else is the greatest accomplishment.โ
All hands on deck for the scorpions, all for one and one for all. We might disagree politically, even last night we disagreed lol but together we will get it right.

Whatever youโre doing in this life, itโs not legendary until youโre in a Haftan. So when they wear their suits to look formal, wear your haftan. The definition of formal is as subject as our places of origin, itโs our identity. It is impossible to be badly dressed in a haftan.
Everyone saying Gambians shouldnโt be raged about the police violence in America, we just lost a Gambian brother who was shot by police in Atlanta. This isnโt an American problem, itโs a global fight every black body needs to take part in.

You donโt know how hard your father worked for you until you begin to provide. We thank Allah for showering them with grace and blessings. We are thankful for all the joy and lessons learned from hardship. May we make them smile.
Dear Gambia, after giving us your mandate 2 weeks ago, I am appealing on behalf of

Coming Soon!
Welcome to the SK West Africell Mini-stadium. Excited to announce that Serekunda West Football Committee, Africell and KMC have come to an agreement to Transform the SK west park to the first Mini-stadium in KM.
African parents might not say โI Love youโ all the time, but their actions towards us are outstanding. The amount of sacrifice they make to see us happy is immeasurable. Whenever someone says our parents aren't affectionate, tell them their love language is the act of service.
Tinubuโs grand plan to become President of Nigeria began 30 years ago and today, he has accomplished it. Politics is a marathon, work towards your ambition and whe itโs meant to be, it shall be.
As the national youth Secretary-General of the United Democratic Party, I urge all party supporters and sympathisers to adhere to the calls of the party leader. He has asked us all to remain calm and go home while we trust and wait for the actions of the leadership of our party.
November 11 is for the 66 babies
November 11 is for the high cost of living
November 11 is for the insecurity
November 11 is for demanding justice for all victims
November 11 is to reclaim The Gambia!
See you all!
The Republic of Senegal is dead! A nation that once stood as the embodiment of democratic ideals and a vessel for collective governance. From the ashes of this demise, a rsilience must be born, one that cherishes liberty, justice, and the dignity of all Senegalese people.
We will never betray the struggle! This and many more are why we will forever be loyal to the
@OfficialUDPGmb
. Commitment to the core and ready to put our lives on the line to see a better Gambia.
As Gambians, considering our proximity to Senegal and social ties, we have every right to be concerned with happening in Senegal. When Senegal sneezes, the Gambia catches cold. We are deeply concerned and advocate for fair processes in Senegalโs political landscape.

In the beginning of our term, I had a discussion with young people of our region and recreational facilities were very high on the list. Tomorrow we open the KM-Afri Park along Kairaba avenue, another development for young people in the Kanifing.
Eid Mubarak to everyone. This year has been an eye opener and one of complexities but the lessons have been immeasurable. To everyone who has taken the responsibility and led families in prayer and all whoโve prayed behind, may Allah grant us our heart desires. โค๏ธ

The day I realised that it was not necessary to have an opinion on every matter, and even if you had, it was ok to keep them to yourself that I found abundant peace on social media.
